Sorry for not responding sooner! I spend little time on the forums and even less time responding so I was a bit unclear on how I was supposed to respond -- I've been editing my original post. I received my coin sometime before Christmas (thank you, thank you!), a wonderful coin from the Netherlands that the sender designed themselves. I mailed out the card before Christmas but ran into trouble with the customs so I kept the coin. You lovely folks helped me word the customs form so the coin would get through customs ok and I mailed it off 12/26. Now I see my recipient is 10 -- I'm especially sorry now for my tardiness, kiddo! Hopefully the coin will make up for it. It's pretty awesome, I think.
